OL MP run game showed up at a very crucial moment in the game. Shows once again how important the run game is.

Holm continues to be my man.

Gimme an oh hell yeah

Ford 228 yards total offense with losses from sacks factored in. 

Pretty much a perfect game by Tony Jones.

Streveler had more net rushing yards than Tre Ford did in this game on 2 QB sneaks.

1 - Demski

2 - Lb'ers

3 - Hogan for calling a balanced game. 

HH - Holm all over the field tonight. 

I did not include Zach as he did still lob several 50/50 balls that were iffy.  A better effort but still got away with 2 - 3 passes that could of been picked off.

Bad lobs were mostly first and early 2nd Q. I’m hoping he’s got it out of his system. Historically slow starter to seasons, too. 

Tony Jones was noticable from the stands, for sure

He was better in pass rush than he has been, a bit worse in run stopping but that was a good struggle for the front 6 in general tonight so it isn’t all on him, pass cover he was his usual self. Too shallow never in place to prevent a pass but rallies to the ball wherever it goes. 
 

Better than biggie any way. Kyrie played his best game of the year but still far off where he needs to be. 

Man. I love watching some haters like @lyin' guy and most RF members meltdown over the bombers dominance 

Willy J being held on every play but 0 calls 

"The bombers o line always holds:(:(::(:(::( why do the refs hate everyone besides the bombers :(??"

Biggest baby in these forums.

I once DM'd him extending sympathy for people jumping on his dumb opinions saying "dude, its the internet. It's ok" 

He extended thanks despite knowing he was wrong

Now he cries and cries Placating to riders fans

I have the screenshots of our private messaging.

PLEASE PLEASE call me out on this @lyin' guy

Kramdi was especially growly tonight, almost had 2 punchouts.

Zach with twice as many rushing yards than Ford.

HH to kick cover teams they have been really good this year

I'd love to see collaros run like he did on the TD more. That kind of escape act used to be his bread and butter. Too often now he just plays tackling dummy when the pocket breaks down. 

couple of those deep shots were absolute dimes...

 

and the refs were utterly embarrassing. WJ by rights should have had 2 more sacks except the LOLks offensive line was allowed to wrap an arm around his neck if he got too close to Ford. The PI that took away the Holm interception was the biggest joke of a call I have ever seen. Dude trips on his own feet and it takes away an INT. Gross. 

1. Collaros over 80% passing, +300 yards, a rushing TD and 3 passing tds.

2. Demski 2 tds and a favoured receiver.

3. Wheatfall big play guy also.

H.H. Vaughters causing headaches for edmos O plus a following the play downfield fumble recovery

Star #1: Zach Collaros. Silenced his critics last night here & in Bomberland with a great performance throwing the ball. He was in command all game except for a stretch in the third quarter where the Bombers had four 3 & outs. Over 300 yards passing & a clutch TD run to sew the victory up for the good guys. 

Star #2: Tony Ayres: Usually our linebackers seem to play the game in obscurity while getting the job done but Ayres job last night was to stick with Tre Ford wherever he went & he did that magnificently. He performance was noticed, He pressured Ford a number of times & sacked the Elks qb at least once & kept him to just 6 yards rushing.

Star #3: Nic Demski with two tds receiving including the one where he stole the ball from the Edmonton DB covering him on the deep throw from Collaros on our second possesion in th first quarter which set the tone for our offense the rest of the night. 

Happy Honker: Wide Receiver Keric Wheatfall who could rack up a 1,500 yard season if he maintains his pace & stays healthy. He's our replacement for Kenny Lawler as a deep threat. Hard to believe Wheatfall's the same rceiver who couldn't keep his regular receiving spot & was a healthy scratch for a large part of the season.

Yup that call on Holm was utter horse s**t. Embarassing.

No no. The refs always favor the bombers though

Just ask @lyin' guy and RF.com

"The bombers only had like 3 calls against them!!!!!"

ITs A CoNsPiRaCy for the bombers!!!

Willy J held 10 times, elks receiver trips over his own feet and Holm gets phantom PI: *crickets*

1. Zach. Over 300 yards and a rushing TD. He missed 5 passes all game really

2. Demski. He was a GTD and really was tremendous.

3. Kramdi. Just liked the effort and caused a fumble. Almost 2 even. 
 

HH. Peterson in the 4th.

I hate that mentality. Every things a conspiracy and the league/refs prop x team. 
 Neither the league nor the refs are remotely competent enough to prop up their own jobs little on go way outside that and do some thing much harder. 
 

I think the reffing was fairly even in its badness last night. We lost two turn overs on questionable situations. And honestly, though I saw a couple brutal holds against our dl, our dl is not good at getting pressure. Our ol benefited more from the modern lack of holding calls than our dl suffered from it. 
 This is the way the league is now. Holding and blocking penalties are rare especially on the ol. You see them far more on special teams. 

I got to say Kramdi has simply been getting better every single year for us. Seeing him as a rotational player to what he is now has been incredible. He’s been absolutely lights out for the Bombers this year. He just always seems to be in the right spot at the right time. He had a great open field tackle on I think it was Gittens Jr. to limit him to six yards, if he doesn’t make that play it’s a huge gain, the trust Younger puts in his players when he sends 7-8  to know they can make a play or a tackle is incredible.

we got mugged a lot more than they did in the dline holding...but we got away with a few...call that a wash

The Bonds INT...That was a good call...he had help from the ground...a good play tho and forced a punt but we didnt get jobbed there...the PI on on Holm was straight crap tho...and Osh needs to challenge that....he is weak and slow onthe challenges...often

Yeah, you can see that slipping out and hitting the turf. It's better that they got it right, no one can say 'that's why they won'

I don't think it would have been overturned. They call accidental PI on any DB that breathes on a receiver as they fall down. The receiver can trip the DB and then shove them down but the way they call it the DB can't do anything.

Yeah I think we got away maybe with more tugs, but they got away with the most egregious plays. Guys like paddy and Stan know exactly what they can get away with. 
 

I’ve got no gripe going either way in the call on bonds pick. That was a tough play to call with all but one angle at super slow mo. My only issue is the quality of the challenge review, and the integrity of the process. I want that to be strong and consistent.

I don’t agree, I think it’s clear he didn’t trip the wr. I also think it’s critical to throw those challenges if you think they won’t over turn it. Make it stand out and appeal it. Force the league to address it and change. Allowing them to brush it under the rug is being complicit. 
 

also, we had a time when those calls were super soft. But that was overhauled a couple years ago. It’s not that way any more. Incidental dpi is not that common and WRs don’t dive and draw calls easily.
